Dead Fish Found in Athlassa Lake, Investigation Underway

Hundreds of dead fish have been found in Athlassa Lake, mobilizing the relevant authorities. Authorities suspect that a sudden increase in water levels stirred up mud from the bottom, affecting the fish. However, there is no evidence of disease or pollution. The removal of the dead fish has begun, while water and fish samples are being collected for laboratory analysis. A similar incident occurred in 2024, without causing significant ecological damage. Authorities assure that there is no cause for public concern.
